Can I take an existing Alpha 2100 system running OpenVMS,
wipe it out and install DigitalUNIX? I have CSLG. Will
I need to buy a OSF base license? (Thanks, Bill!)
 
These are the original model/descriptions of the
major components:
 
DY-251P1-A9 DEC 2100 Server Model A500MP
450YR-AA VMS System Add-In CPU for SMP
MS451-CA 512MB ECC Memory Board
BA350-KA Storage Pedestal w/AC 1/2 SCSI
RZ28-VA 2.1 GB Disks
TLZ6L-LG 16GB DAT Loader
 
I've searched the Digital WEB servers and I seen this
as "an advantage" of Alphaservers.....
"The only series of solutions with the freedom of choice
of three operating system environments - all AlphaServer
systems are designed to run Digital UNIX, OpenVMS, or
Windows NT."
 
Anyone confirm or deny? Better yet, if so, has anyone
tried this?
 
Thanks for your assistance! I will post a summary.
